an extension of : chai-garam-chaiiiiii


we can confirm, the chai-walla has ulterior motives.

the tea in the office usually comes with a packet or two of sugar on the side. after my periodic refusal of chini (sugar) in my chai, a complete cultural taboo here in India even if you are diabetic,
.. annha-ji has  repeatedly, and secretly dosed my tea with sugar.

now, anyone who doesn't like sugar in their tea, knows what the hell tea with sugar tastes like! not to mention, if you are craving that morning cuppa and you get a sugar blast with your first sip, there is little remorse felt for the prankster.

while this situation is both trivial and supremely annoying, especially because then i need to re-order tea (which we pay for!), there is a touch of hilarity to it.

just try to imagine what a guilty pug looks like - stone cold expression with a twinkle of craftily suppressed trickery in its eyes.

goooooood morning UNDP India!
